Six games in, does anyone miss Bell?

You're STILL talking about Bell?

As lowly as your team is, talking about relevant STEELERS topics beat the **** out any cheats topic.




Salute the nation

"However, he also writes per the “extensive knowledge” source that the team would actually not be in line for a compensatory pick with the loss of Bell in 2018 because of the signings of Morgan Burnett and Jon Bostic, the only significant loss being Chris Hubbard."

Did you miss this part of the article Coach?

To be fair, that's not how the compensatory picks work. It's not a one for one type of thing. Burnett does NOT equal Bell, just as Bostic does NOT equal Hubbard. PFT are ******* morons. I hate to admit, but Coach is correct. We would still likely get a compensatory pick if we rescind Bell's tag.

Obviously Hubbard got a pricey deal.

But not sure how Bell's trade/tag would work within the compensation formula.

As we know for years people have said the formula for comp picks were screwy to begin with............

my concern is an injury to conner. if he goes down, i don't want us going into the playoffs with ridley as the starter. i would like to see more of samuels to see what he is as a runner. i thought he looked pretty good in preseason but i really don't know what we have in him. if conner can stay healthy i think we are more than good there but if not, then i think we have major issues at rb. we need a better #2 i think for injury reasons so i don't know what to think about trading bell this year or how it all will work.
